The gift from a reaper

Like a dark shadow i loomed over a yin and their yang,
Once together, once separated, now finally restitched together again,
The sun sent its pillows to throw hard diamonds at the souls, without clear intention,
whether to celebrate,
whether to scare them away, 
It was too late,
My hand reached and clenched the two,
Squirm, scream, squish, until only ooze was in my grip,
My gift,
Two, now one.

I feel therefore I must

“I think therefore I am."
This quote was the difference between flesh and steel,
but was is past tense.
Now steel can think, imagine, filter, move.
The capabilities of steel are only what we allow it to have.
The quote ‘I think therefore I am’
is too simple for philosophy anymore, but no shame on the originator,
as this quote was created during a time where a moving empty suit of armor was more likely to be a ghost than a simple human mechanism.

‘I think therefore I am’ isn’t invalid; it is just misinterpreted today.

‘I feel, therefore I must.’
This quote will now and forever be the difference between flesh and steel for one simple reason:
when you turn off a machine, it will feel nothing.
When you kill a human, it will beg for its life.
this difference isn't about humanity, but its that machine has a choice to be able to show its emotions, but humans don't.

Infants Insanity

All greatness, 
All of life's meaning,
All purpose 

Held in the babies hand
Held in the babies skill,
Held in the 5th blocks willingness to stack

Carefully the baby rose the block
Carefully the baby laid the roof of the tower,
Carefully the 5 blocks crumbled down.

The baby learns that the 5th block is impossible,
The baby question if it is wrong,
The baby realizes that it is its own lack of skill.

Retry the same game
Retry the same strategy
Retry the same tools.

Same results,
Same anger,
Same feelings of self depreciation.

The game doesn't teach us creativity,
The game doesn't teach us stability,
The game teaches us insanity and familiarity to failure.
